A quartet of former SuperSport United players, which include Aubrey Modiba, who lost in the CAF Confederation Cup final in 2017 want to help Mamelodi Sundowns return to the top of African football after a nine-year hiatus.
Aubrey Modiba says that Mamelodi Sundowns are well aware of the threat posed by Pyramids FC. Photo: BackpagePixSuperSport United’s ability to be a feeder team for Mamelodi Sundowns has mostly paid off, as the playing personnel graduate from being boys to men.
Now that they are eyeing their second African crown in the CAF Champions League this season, they could be helped by the former players of their arch-rivals. Speaking during Sundowns’ media event at Chloorkop on Wednesday ahead of the first leg of the CAF Champions League final at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday , Modiba admitted that they want to make up for lost time.
“It’s been eluding us for so many years, but right now, we are on the right track. We just have to do well on both legs – firstly at home.”They have already received first-hand advice from the two surviving members of the class of 2016. “We could see the celebrations all around the country – the fans were happy, and everyone around the club.
